  1. This is literally why i do not play the game as much anymore. it is my fault. i cannot (will not) try to be in the same universe as people that think like this
  2. are you sure you tried the exit button?
  3. There is a street in Santa Barbara Ca called Indio Muerto street. (Dead Indian street) Long story short, a native american died there. The local politicians many years later were making a real case and giant cause of changing the name to stop offending anyone. Then the local Native population were like "We are not offended. Thanks." Still..... If anyone was offended... that would be different. Calling someone Useless (derogatory) is different than calling someone dead (a natural state) I am unsure and cannot speak for the Native population, but useless indian street might have had a different effect on their sensibilities....
  4. In my role playing career I have run many knock offs. I had a DM that let me run Darth Vader, Darth Maul, and a Wolverine knock off. Having Darth Maul knock on George Lucas front door was a fun RP session. Vader ended up in a uber fantasy (very high magic) setting where we even got some Stormtrooper golems and set up a Star Wars series of plays. (no movie screens) My Wolv knock off was named Badger and more or less a parallel uniberse. Of course Badger is not available in game and frankly claws regen suck in CoH anyways. I also have some long running "just mine" creations. But I do enjoy taking a concept, like say Nosferatu, and try to experience what the world is like through that odd perspective. There has been so many stories told through human history that almost everything is inspired by or a amalgamation of other peoples ideas. Even my reptile man Sssautharg who was a Mana Fire/Evil Mentalist in RoleMaster was probably just bits of all my other RP adventures glued together. But not a knock off, nothing like him around I remember. But there is nothing truly new under the sun. Humans do not work that way.
  5. This is truth. In all my MiDs torturing every number for more more more only in Dull Pain have I found a benefit of Hami=Os. The other place I use them is when I just have one slot (the default) sometimes slapping a Hami in there is marginally better (and a lot more expensive)
  6. it really depends on the Hami-O. There are Rech/Heal Hamis that came out with the Dr Aeon. Those filled a spot in Invulnerability (Dull Pain) that traditionally got 3 rech/heal from various sets. Two 53 Hamis there save a enhancement slot. priceless, but spendy indeed. those things are not cheap
  7. this is fine. it is parody. be creative and do parody. DO NOT run Wolverine straight up with the name Wolver!ne and expect it to fly um....but do not do batmanuel. that would now be copying...
  8. game has a long history of people standing while being dead. look at me....
  9. i think wrestling teaches these guys to be such great actors. John, Cena, The Rock, Roddy Piper, on and on: everyone that comes out of that environment just seems to have great timing and has fun with the audience.
  10. When you talk about enhancement, you need the best advice
  11. i could never get the chroma down. too many buttons and combat is so fast. i use a two side button now. it would be nice to have two more buttons there, but...12? my thumb is not that smart lol
  12. light wall panels and glass tops do a lot to brighten up the old tomb.
  13. next update they are nerfing Regen
  14. oh, Octopi are scary smart. only live a year and yet are incredible problem solvers. interesting theory on the evolution of the year cycle is that they are also natural cannibals. so the old gen dies before the next shows up....
  15. yeah, do to a mishap in my younger years my right hand is fubar. okay for weightlifting, but typing is right out. The Razer Tarterus giving me left hand control is a blessing.
  16. Yeah, i used to pretend I understood agro. With the latest changes? Nope.
  17. i also play wow.... but yeah, i dont even watch shows on the tv. tend to watch programs on my phone lol
  18. I have the TV wall mounted now, but this is my setup. The Razer Tarterus left hand is the key. movent by thumbtoggle with paddle thumb jump. 20 dedicated power buttons, basically two trays.
  19. yeah, because what the game balance needs at this point is for fire to do more damage...
  20. Well. You irritate a mob. This is really easy for me, I have a knack. Then that mob attacks you
  21. Show me on the doll where the bad man touched you
  22. Personally my sarcasm is always pretty direct. Never understood why people call it passive aggressive. Unless you are an idiot it is pretty obviously in your face.
  23. Yeah. I am not sure how close you can get. I mean, we do not want to work HC staff overtime. They do this voluntarily and they have better things to do. At Disney Land/World you (past age 14?) cannot dress as a Disney character. This is not due to trademark practices, but because it can confuse young guests. So die hard fans that are pros do something called "Disney Bounding" where they dress with similar colors, maybe a ribbon in the hair to match, but do not "copy" a character obviously enough to fool anyone. An homage character, with "hints" at the influence, and a DIFFERENT name, might be fine. Or pick something that is in public domain, like, maybe a nosferatu lol.
